Keep your drum brakes adjusting on schedule with the Carlson Drum Brake Adjusting Lever H2049.

It is cataloged for the FRONT LEFT and REAR LEFT positions and drops in as a direct-fit replacement across a wide range of Dodge and Ford trucks and vans.
Fitment: select applications include the 1986-1993 Dodge D250, D350, W250 and W350, the 1975-2002 Ford E-250 Econoline, the 1967-1999 Ford F-250 and the 1967-2009 Ford F-350. This part covers 24 applications in total — see the Buyer's Guide tab for the full list of years, makes and models.
